"With High Definition Modeling, you will see
your grid much more clearly..."
The popular modeling and simulation tools used
around the world today for modeling grid behavior are just not sensitive enough
to adequately plan for the addition of substantial renewable and distributed
energy resources. Especially as the penetration of wind power rises above 5-10%
in a grid that is not extremely large and stable, grid managers must be
equipped to anticipate problems and prevent them. Otherwise the grid is exposed
to too much risk of instability and potentially catastrophic failure. 
This is why we have developed modeling techniques that operate a
level below conventional grid-simulation tools – down in the underlying
differential equations that drive the model itself. This has enabled us to
build models with unprecedented power and focus:
- Our models "see" individual wind generators and widely
dispersed wind farms, for example, as clearly as they see prime-mover power-gen
assets. They understand how every component in the system impacts grid
stability.
- We can model your grid using a variety of simulation tools
– including the one that you are using now: MatLab/PST, DigSILENT, CYME, PSCAD,
or PSS/E.
A High Definition "boost" will enable you to drill down to see
individual resources and their influence on grid stability without having to
waste time learning a new modeling tool.
